What Chuck Massey likes about 1959 Kitchen:
The service and atmosphere were excellent. It's a convenient spot to visit before enjoying a comedy show at Second City, or simply a great place to dine for delicious food. View all feedback. What Mossie West doesn't like about 1959 Kitchen:
They called me 8 minutes before my reservation to cancel because they had a private party. The said they would move my reservation to a restaurant next door and by our first round of drinks. When I arrived to the restaurant they moved us to, they had no reservation on file and no idea what I was talking about! View all feedback.

Good pub food (loved the caramelized Brussels sprouts) and great service. Perfect for a bite before a show at Second City.
